Taylor Swift fans are connecting the dots between her new song The Prophecy on her album, The Tortured Poets Department, after remembering an old clip from 10 years ago.
Taylor Swift‘s new record is a hit with fans, that’s clear. The singer released The Tortured Poets Department on Friday, and they’re still trying to decipher every lyric from each song. The celebrity had only told fans she was releasing another album a few months ago at the Grammys. Now, the music star’s love life and privacy away from the camera is out in the spotlight, as they try to work out how many Easter eggs she’s left for them. But one thing they didn’t count on, was feeling so ‘broken’ over The Prophecy and rewatching a 10-year-old video of Taylor Swift.
Old interview resurfaces
The clip in question is when the singer-songwriter sat down with Katie Couric in 2012, aged 22.
The star asks Tay-Tay: “Finish this sentence if you could, ‘In 10 years, I will be…'”
She replies: “32 and… Woah, that’s such a hard question. It’s like, all my fears come out”.
When Katie asks what the Lover hitmaker means, she adds: “Like losing everything, losing my friends and family and ending up alone and crying and stuff”.
So the interviewer asked her to think about it again, with a positive spin instead. So Taylor, now 34, says: “In 10 years, I will hopefully know… either have a family or know when I want to have one, or something”.
She also wanted to know when “people get tired of me” and when “that line is”.
But fans now feel her song The Prophecy is about Taylor Swift’s fears she was talking about a decade ago.
Taylor Swift’s The Prophecy lyrics are put under the microscope
In the song, she talks about her desire to find love and whether she’ll always be alone.
The lyrics state: “Please / I’ve been on my knees / Change the prophecy / Don’t want money / Just someone who wants my company.
“Let it once be me / Who do I have to speak to / About if they can redo the prophecy?”
Swifties are feeling it too.
One wrote on Twitter: “Don’t listen to ‘the prophecy’ after watching this clip, just don’t.”
Another said: “It hurts so bad, oh my God.”
And someone else echoed: “Oh this is breaking me”.
While she has surpassed that 10-year mark, she is now dating NFL star Travis Kelce, and has 11 studio albums under her belt – plus a handful of re-recorded ones too.
Although, fans are concerned when she was writing this album over the past two years – which she admitted – she felt this way as her relationship with Joe Alwyn was coming to an end.
We’ve got you Taylor.
